Baylor vs Washington Prediction 

Washington comes into this matchup looking for their third straight win to start the season, but this is going to be a very tough task for them. The Huskies are shooting 50% from the field and they are going to need their offense to show up if they want to keep pace. Baylor didn’t play solid defense in their first game, but their offense was great in the win. The Bears will need to improve that defense, but they do like to play at a quick pace. This should be an entertaining game, but I think this is too difficult of a spot for Washington. Take Baylor to cover at home.
